Wellness Coaching

A Health Coach is someone who works closely with you to assist you in determining and achieving your professional, personal, health, wellness or fitness goals. I’ll help guide and mentor you along your path of reclaiming your Life through Health.

This is not Therapy! Your participation is VITAL to Your success.

Is it right for you?

As an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, I’ll be your mentor or guide to help you discover what’s right for YOU to achieve or attain YOUR health / fitness / wellness goals, through encouraging lasting behavioral changes. I can work as a wellness team member with your health care professionals that are assisting you to achieve a desired outcome, be it weight loss, or perhaps you need to lower blood sugar levels or your cholesterol levels. At NO point do coaching services take the place of or replaces that of professional health care providers such as your Doctor.

Coaching is a powerful tool that can help you to make changes in your business or career, improve your performance, enhance your relationships with others, yourself, or regain health and wellness or perhaps attain weight loss.

There are 2 different approaches to coaching and this is where the definitions of coaching become blurred.

Non-directive coaching is coaching in the true sense of the word where the coach simply asks you questions to allow you to find your own solutions. A non-directive coach will certainly not offer you advice and rarely even give you suggestions, although through skillful questioning they will help you to see your situation from a different perspective, gain clarity, uncover options, challenge inconsistencies and hold you accountable to your actions. In a sense, guide you on a self-discovery journey.

The great benefit of non-directive coaching is that you, the client are the driver of the process, you take full ownership of your own solutions rather than ‘doing what you have been told to do.’ Through this approach you will feel a sense of empowerment to make lasting changes in your life.

Directive coaching on the other hand is where the coach offers you solutions, tools and techniques for moving forward. You may like to be offered solutions however the danger is that the solution may not be appropriate for your situation and consequently may not feel fully committed to the solution provided.

As an Integrative Nutritional Health Coach, I explore with you all the ways YOUR body is communicating with you, to help you create an intimate dialogue with yourself and an understanding of what your body is telling you so that together we can determine what you really need to be happy,balanced and healthful. There is no one way of eating that fits all.

Better Your Nutrition

Our modern day diet is heavy in simple grains, genetically modified foods, and processed subsistence. We don’t consume enough fresh fruits and vegetables. Many of us get our whole grains from instant rice, refined wheat breads, pastas, or cereal. We eat a tremendous amount of prepackaged, pre-made meals with sugar. One-quarter of Americans eat fast food each day. We are overfed and undernourished. Nutritionally as a Nation we are ignorant.

The consensus among many in regards to highly refined sources of carbohydrates within a diet and relying on industrialized processed foods is a primary contributor to the chronic illnesses in America. This lack of nutrient dense food (non-processed) has increased diabetes, heart attacks, obesity, and many other lifestyle related disorders

The good news is that, if properly fed and given the right nutrients, the human body will repair itself, if given the chance and time. To do so, we often need a little guidance. That’s where Kris comes in, to teach just how simple it is to “Eat Healthfully”, through simple and easy to implement nutritional tips, balancing ALL parts of your life.

Lets face it we are more than what we eat!
